There are seemingly an infinite fountain of readily available resources to help do-it-yourselfers, such as books with step-by-step instructions and online how-to videos. In the past five years, the demand for such videos has boomed since most people have realized it’s easy to save some bucks handling cosmetic improvements alone. Those who tried and succeeded have gone on to more complex endeavors like installing tiles or replacing countertops.

And with so much free time on our hands, more and more people are willing to try out and undertake home projects that they feel comfortable with. The last part is crucial, since making a spontaneous decision when you haven’t a single clue on what you’re about to be doing is a red flag that you may be better off without doing it yourself.

No, most attics are built like that in the US. You have to stay on the rafters and not tread on the drywall (plaster sheets) or you'll go right through. Some people put down planking or particle board to make pathways but it's not that common.

Drywall is what Americans call plaster board. In the UK (and most of Europe) we use floorboards in our loft spaces, although a lot of developers of government housing didn't bother, to save cost. The yellow stuff is insulation (Often made from fibreglass so don't touch it without gloves and goggles), keeps the warmth in.

The second crucial thing is being realistic about the renovation budget. “If you don’t have the funds,” cautions Irving, “cut the job back. If you happen to beat these projections, then your surprises are happy ones.” A good rule to follow is to always add 20 percent to what you think the project will cost, and make sure that it will very likely take much longer than you initially realize.

Sometimes things are better entrusted to pros. “You are about to spend more than you ever thought possible. It might as well be for a correctly-designed thing,” Irving says.

Here’s another tip. No matter how much we’d like to think we know things best, there are things that we truly have no idea about, and it’s fine. Realizing that asking questions will make the process smoother and more efficient is another simple trick to make your renovation work. Pretending that you know stuff, like reading blueprints, is not an option, especially when it’s you who are paying the money.

However, changing things around as you go with remodeling is also a no-go. Sticking to the plan, listening to the pros, and trusting your gut are things that should guide you through the process no matter what. Don’t let yourself get carried away by some way nicer paint for the kitchen walls, because there are always better things out there.

Let me guess. The grill is on wheels (that weren’t locked), and the furniture isn’t. The rocking chair, however, may not be on wheels, but, I mean, we all found out as children that rocking a rocking chair really hard and fast can propel it across a room. So obviously, the wind rocked this chair hard enough to propel it across the patio and into the pool.

That's actually interesting, how the furniture must have "spilled" the wind through its shape and slots. But the grill actually "caught" the wind because of its flat surfaces and lack of vents.

My biggest fear is slipping in the bathroom, hitting my head and getting immediately paralyzed and dying a slow death since I live alone and no one actually knows where I live

227points

Gandalf the Pink 4 years ago (edited)

Yes that's an absolutely terrifying thought. Since we've already gone this morbid; I guess if you got immediately paralyzed there would be some ""comfort"" in knowing there isn't anything more you could do but try to accept your fate. I fear falling and accidentally cutting my throat. The panic of trying to stop the bleeding while also trying to call for help. I don't think a phone touchscreen works well with a bloody hand. So I'd have to run outside and try to find someone all while being closer and closer to death. The anxiety of all those super important microdecisions. And the stress of knowing I'd only have a limited time before being too weak to do anything more. 😩

I live alone too. I once slipped at the top of my third floor stairs. I instinctively grabbed on to the railing... And when I got to the bottom of the steps on my ass and elbows, I was gripping the railing, which came with me the whole way down. I was lucky not to die a few times, all alone. I hate living alone, but I also wont do random strangers as housemates. My dad and I eventually installed what seems to be much more secure railings, but I had been without them for so long that it took me a long time to get used to USING them.

This happened to me, except it hit the fan blade, which caused it to spin and turned it into a sprinkler, in my loungeroom early Christmas morning. It happened in the early hours so everything was saturated and ruined by the time we got up. 10 minutes later and the ceiling collapsed. Worst Christmas ever.

I can't stand dirty or lazy contractors. We bought a house and during inspection, I asked where the septic tanks were. The guy, who renovated this house btw, says, "There's 5 of them, and they're here and here and here." I say, "Five!?" "Yep, you won't ever have to pump them." Fast forward 2 years and poo water is bubbling from the ground every time we flush the back toilet. I dig it up and there is two, septic tanks, not the 5. And, instead of digging a leach field, they just knocked a hole on the side of the concrete tank, near the top and so when it gets full, it just seeps into the ground. Wanted to punch that old dude in the mouth!

If your attic is basically no more than a crawl space there is usually no point in going to the expense of finishing it.

Pulled Up The Old Carpet To Put Down New Carpet (Which Was Already Paid For/Measured/Cut) And Found Out The Wood Floors Are Actually Pristine Underneath. $2300 In Carpet Well Spent

I dont think it works like that, they were having the whole floor carpeted, and it was already cut to the size of the room, they didn’t buy a rug.

Get the carpet overlocked on the edges to make a wall to wall rug; have wood flooring in the summer and carpet in the colder months.

A friend of mine just bought cork boards worth 2500 € to replace parquet in his house. Turns out there are tiles in perfect condition underneath and as a bonus the underfloor heating is working now. They thought it was broken for years, but the heat just didn't get threw the insulation and parquet. *facepalm* Previous house owner didn't think it was worth mentioning.

I would make the new carpet into area rugs. The beauty of area rugs with wood floors is that they can be replaced if stained by pets, etc. Or if you just want to change up your style.

I hate when flooring is coated with carpet or laminate. There's no telling what the prior owner (often a flipper) is hiding. My house has had several layers of flooring added to each room, on top of the wood floors. In this case, it looks like you will only need to put some extra trim in to deal with the gap at the walls.

They could've cut a channel to hide the pipes and cabling. I think these guys messed up the air intake line (angling upwards) and made it unfeasible to run the condensation drainage the same way. Terribad workmanship sadly.

No, the compressor is outside. The pipes go to the compressor outside the house. The part shown here is the interior portion of a split system. WAY BETTER than a window AC and more efficient than whole house AC (which is usually just added to an existing retrofit forced-air system where the ducts are in all the wrong places to deliver COOL air to the house).

This is probably the result of ‘cost-cutting’ to save money. Which never works out as you end up using twice as much as the old stuff (or in this case maybe 4x as much!) and have to buy twice as much as you did before. This happened at work with loo roll and paper towels. Not worth it and ends up costing more money!

This is actually the right way up IMO. If you think of a door with a glass pane, the pane is the smaller section and in the uppermost position. Also, again, you could just flip it over.
